Happy birthday!
Sorry if this is a stupid question but I'm not a devops guy and don't keep up enough.

We've used Azure pipes for CI for quite a while and github actions which I personally find much easier to use (although artifacts are super painful with the latter).

Will MS converge on these two?

It seems there's a lot of overlap between the stuff github and Azure do. Both tackle the problems differently so I'm not sure if a reasonable merge is even possible. But the duplication is just odd.

Thanks!

Short answer: no.
Long answer: I will address this during the live stream :)

I agree, they solve the same problem in different ways. But they are still 2 different products, at the end of the day.

Again, thanks for your question and the BDay wishes, and make sure to follow the live stream later this week for the complete answer :)
